Chapter 166: The Eve
No Vaseline is distributed entirely through DJ networks in the form of underground CDs (discs, which are not officially released), which has become a good opportunity for young and medium-sized DJs to show off their social skills, and as soon as they get the record, they will mysteriously show off to the audience: "Hey, I've got you guys a good thing today." ”
As a result, shortly after No Vaseline was released, all the radio stations concerned about gang rap music were talking about it, and DJs who couldn't get No Vaseline's discs would be very embarrassed, so they had to borrow them everywhere.
Atlantic Records sent out a lot of publicity releases and media promotion for "Me, Little Lowry", but they all had little success, the crash was too bad, and it was completely drowned in this wave of media carnival, because of the lyrics, his single could not be on TV and mainstream media, and the situation was not optimistic.
Of course, this is what Song Ya is happy to see, but it's a pity that in Chicago and the surrounding areas where he has the strongest control, the DJs will give Lowry Jr. and GD a proper push.
"What I didn't say, Escuber is a villain, pure, full of lies, and I don't believe a word of what he says...... Wait, I got the latest news! Big E told reporters that he would deal with the matter and would deal with it...... What is the meaning? He didn't plan to send a song to DISS back, but wanted to give Escubber a little bit of ruthlessness? Cruel! It's long overdue to deal with Escubus, he's a scourge ...... M-FXXK"
. A diehard big A is still holding his ground, frantically attacking Escubber, "Okay, I'm a little tired, I've been broadcasting for more than ten hours since this happened, I'm sorry, let me take a break, I'm so angry." I'm going to put on some songs for you, one of my brothers, Lori Jr.'s new order is also on sale, second-hand store, remember? He's also our own Chicago guys, and it's a very cool, pure gangster rap style, you're going to love it......"
The music plays, and Taragi turns off the radio.
"I can get the DJs to push something, but I can't get them not to push anything." Song Ya smiled bitterly.
"The former can do it if he has money and a way, while the latter needs real power, strength, power." Hayden said.
"That's true."
Song Ya obviously doesn't have this kind of power now, "What does the silencer say?" Did the money give him? He asked Taraji.
"The money was given." Taragi performed a body language, staring straight ahead, thumping his chest, and giving a thumbs up......
"Haha, sure enough, it's still the style of 'silencer', you learn quite similarly." Song Ya comprehended, "It seems that he is doing well inside." ”
Little Lowry still has nothing to say on this point, it is quite righteous, he spent a lot of money to get the lawyer to apply for the transfer of the 'silencer' to a prison out of the reach of the gang in New York, which is very necessary, otherwise the 'silencer' will not have a good life in prison, not to mention other dangers, just fighting in it is easy to change the sentence from one year to two years, two years to five years......
"Yay...... Ahem. Tarraghi lowered his voice as much as he could, learning to speak with a silencer, "Yay......"
"That's it!" This time, Hayden also laughed with Song Ya.
Old Mack drove very steadily, and the group returned to their home in Hayden Park, where the tailor had already brought in the new gowns that would be used at Mira's return to the Blue Reef premiere on August 1.
"Imperial Magazine: A remake of a classic film, still handsome men and beautiful women, still beautiful island style, the heroine Milla Jovovich has become a public lover with a song to De Klerk, and the world expects her from not just Brooke Spas, but Madonna. Finally there is a film that can make the audience appreciate her youth and beauty, except for Toy Condor and Terminator 2, other films released next week do not seem to pose a threat to it, with a box office forecast of 800 to 10 million dollars in the first week, ranking third. ”
The Hollywood Reporter: The heroine is Milla Jovovich, and the PG-13 rating (free to watch over 13, accompanied by parents under 13) seems to suggest that there is something to watch in this island youth film. There were 1,280 theaters scheduled in the first week, which is slightly different from the more than 1,300 theaters that the media got at the beginning, but it is understandable that the unexpected explosion of the block boy, who is also Columbia Pictures, affected his family's follow-up film schedule. The only thing that is questionable is the twenty-one-year-old male protagonist Brian Krauss, is he a little too old? ”
"The Wall Street Journal: Columbia Pictures has been picking up a bit lately, it seems that they have finally come out of the chaos after the merger and acquisition of the book, following the classic case of the block boy, which is a small and big classic, the return to the blue reef with a production cost of only 11 million is about to be released, they made a good deal, and when they signed the heroine Milla Jovovich, the other party was just an outdated model, and by the eve of the film's release, the girl from the Mao immigrant background has regained the favor of the fashion industry, and the road to the singer is also very smooth."
Louise reports: South Pacific, young lonely men and widows, if you want to know the plot, go rent Youth Coral Island! Columbia Pictures can't play with flowers, and I really don't understand what the point of remaking a film from just ten years ago is? Also fifteen years old, who is good-looking Milla Jovovich or Brooke Smalls? Aesthetically normal people have the answer in their hearts. ”
While Song Ya was trying on dresses, Taraghi read him all the reports about Mira's new film in entertainment magazines.
"What the hell is Louise reporting?" Song Ya frowned, "Gossip tabloids? ”
"I guess so." Tarragi shook the bells and whistles of the newspaper, cheap paper betraying its style.
"Don't read the gossip tabloids next time, it will affect the mood."
Song Ya adjusted her bow tie slightly in front of the mirror, "No, don't buy it, not a single sales volume will contribute to them." ”
On July 31, Song Ya arrived in Los Angeles, where he first participated in a local charity event for African Women's Day, and Mila was also present, but the two did not interact with each other except for eye contact.
The small-scale riots in Los Angeles have not stopped, and all the sources point to the movie Block Boys, which on the one hand shows the reality of the black community naked in front of the black people at the bottom, reminding them of the Rodney King case and the Shilla shopkeeper case not long ago, and then returning to the streets to make trouble. On the other hand, the plot of the vendetta between the two gangs in the film clearly hints at the Cripple and the Blood Gang, and the final act of revenge played by Cooper's character provokes the 'blood' and new hatred of the two gangs, and a series of conflicts and shootings erupt in the black neighborhood.
The bloody events had no effect on the film, Columbia Pictures barely lowered its schedule, and the 23-year-old rookie director John Singleton became famous, with numerous film offers pouring in, and there were even rumors that he would be nominated for an Oscar for the film.
"You're not in good shape during the day, are you too tired?"
Back at the hotel, Song Ya called her.
"I'm so stressed...... "I haven't slept well in days, and when I touch my pillow, I hear countless people laughing at me......"
"It's not a big deal, it's just a movie with a 10 million investment." Song Ya leaned in front of the hotel's floor-to-ceiling windows, overlooking the beautiful night view of Los Angeles.
"That's it?"
Mira sighed, "I still like to sing, and I wasn't so nervous before the premiere of De Klerk." ”
Song Ya smiled, "People don't necessarily know what they really like, maybe for music, you prefer movies, otherwise why would you be more nervous now than when you released a single?" ”
"Maybe."
Mira was silent for a moment, "I miss you." ”
"Didn't you just see each other during the day?"
"I want you to come over right now and appear in front of me."
"Stop making a fuss, there's a bunch of reporters and paparazzi on your doorstep."
"Hmph, don't love me, don't obey."
“……”
The two were chatting casually, "Mira, it's time to go to bed, do you want to drink some vodka?" Mrs. Jovovich's voice entered the microphone.
